Description
The Buddha's teachings were not universally accepted in his lifetime. In fact, he was regarded as a guru who imparted his wisdom only to those deemed capable of benefiting from it, much like the typical Indian guru. This perspective challenges the common perception of the Buddha and his mission. Peter Masefield explores this idea in Divine Revelation in Pali Buddhism , shedding new light on the historical context of the Buddha's teachings. By examining the Buddha's role as a spiritual guide, Masefield offers a fresh understanding of the significance of his teachings and their enduring impact on Buddhist practice.
